Answer:

The correct option is d.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equations are

$x-2y=2$ .... (1)

$y=-2x+5$ .... (2)

In equation 2, multiply both sides by 2.

$2y=-4x+10$ .... (3)

Now add equation (1) and (3).

$x-2y+2y=2+(-4x+10)$

$x=2-4x+10$

$x+4x=12$

$5x=12$

Divide both sides by 5.

$x=\frac{12}{5}=2.4$

Put this value in equation (2).

$y=-2(2.4)+5$

$y=-4.8+5$

$y=0.2$

Therefore the solution of the system of equation is (2.4,0.2) and the system has only one solution. Option d is correct.

Write a system of equations to describe the situation below, solve using elimination, and fill in the blanks.

Alexandra [31]

37x + 45y = 7940
75x + 45y = 10,410

Since 45y is in both equations we can more easily transfer from first equation to 2nd equation.

In the first equation, subtract 37x from each side and you have 45y = 7940 - 37x. Replace the 45y in the second equation with (7940 - 37x).

Now you have 75x + (7940 - 37x) = 10,410

Simplify by combining 75x - 37x and you have 38x + 7940 = 10,410

Subtract 7940 from both sides and you have 38x = 2470.

Divide both sides by 38 and you have x = 65

To solve for y, take you first equation (or even the second one) and substitute c for 65.

(37 x 65) + 45y = 7940
2405 + 45y = 7940

Subtract 2405 from each side.

45y = 5535

Divide each side by 45 and you have y = 123

A standard piece of paper is 0.05 mm thick. Let's imagine taking a piece of paper and folding the paper in half multiple times.

tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

(a) $g(n)=0.05\cdot 2^n$

(b) $g^{-1}(n)=\log_{2}20g(n)$

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A

The paper's thickness = 0.05mm

When the paper is folded, its width doubles (increases by 100%).

The thickness of the paper grows exponentially and can be modeled by the function:

$g(n)=0.05(1+100\%)^n\\\\g(n)=0.05\cdot 2^n$

Part B

$g(n)=0.05\cdot 2^n\\2^n=\dfrac{g(n)}{0.05}\\ 2^n=20g(n)\\$Changing to logarithm form, we have:\\\log_{2}20g(n)=n\\$Therefore:\\g^{-1}(n)=\log_{2}20g(n)$

Part C

If the thickness of the paper, g(n)=384,472,300,000 mm

Then:

$g^{-1}(n)=\log_{2}20g(n)\\g^{-1}(n)=\log_{2}20\times 384,472,300,000\\=\dfrac{\log 20\times 384,472,300,000}{\log 2} \\g^{-1}(n)=42.8 \approx 43\\n=43$

You must fold the paper 43 times to make the folded paper have a thickness that is the same as the distance from the earth to the moon.
